GUANGZHOU -- Two people were killed and another one was missing as downpour continued for a week in south China's Guangdong province, said local authorities on Sunday.

Torrential rains triggered flood in the Pingyuan and Jiaoling counties in the Meizhou city in eastern Guangdong, where maximum rainfall in three hours had reached 191.5 millimeters, a record high in 100 years, according to the Guangdong provincial hydrology bureau.
